quick note, this driver is most likely not critical during setup (as in; hard-drive not found), but the error must be fixed.

I'll do a silent NON-version change upload.

one can use ; to comment it out too

[V-4]
ms_count=1
ms_1_deviceName="VIA SATA IDE Device Driver"
ms_1_tag="ViBus"
ms_1_sysFile="ViBus.sys"
ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_ bla bla C_0101"
ms_1_isBusExtender=true
ms_1_exc_disableIfOS="w2k"
; ms_1_exc_skipIfOS="wxp,w2k3"

erm, when I did the TXT cleanup (removing all tabs and spaces) I did that to make it easily seen wether there was a carriage return where it did harm.
well, I just saw one just before "PCI\VEN_ bla bla C_0101"

psychoboust,

If you need to use that driver, I would just change "ms_1_exc_skipIfOS = "wxp,w2k3"" to either "ms_1_exc_skipIfOS = "w2k3"", if you're using it for Windows XP, or to "ms_1_exc_skipIfOS = "wxp"", if you're installing it for Windows Server 2003. If you're installing it for Windows 2000, just remove "ms_1_exc_disableIfOS= "w2k"" completely, but leave the other line in.

jtdoom or Helmi, please confirm whether this is the right thing to do. Thanks.

Hi,

i use the last DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_7064 but when i launch the slipstream (in my case with BartePe) i look inside the MassStorage.infi and i didn't find any "ViBus", "VIA SATA IDE Device Drive" entries in this files.

If i remove
ms_1_exc_disableIfOS= "w2k"
ms_1_exc_skipIfOS = "wxp,w2k3"
from
"DriverPack_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32.ini"

then the "ViBus", "VIA SATA IDE Device Drive" entries appear in "MassStorage.inf".

Is there any problem ?

Thanks a lot for your work

Yeah, but what does that mean, exactly?

I think, either it works or it does not work.
No yellow exclamation marks usually mean the driver's been installed properly and the device should hence work as expected...

Via sata port bus extender gets implemented.

MiniIDE was already implemented.

Via has changed the way the SATAIDE (NON-RAID) and PATAIDE stuff is now installed. They are now separate drivers. They were, as best as I could tell, combined in older versions and Via RAID was separate. Now MiniIDE folder is the PATA side of things and SATAIDE folder is the SATA.
No, I don't get any yellow exclamations with pack as is but I have to run the hyperion512 after windows is reinstalled and finished to get the current setup correct.

At least I can throw out the floppy drive now if I want to using the pack and text-mode.

Thx for you alls hard work.

Err, pardon me but what do you mean by "being correct"?
If you are worried about having the latest drivers, if I understand Jaak correctly, there has nothing been updated in that regard.
Are there actually devices missing (yellow !) in your device manager or what exactly is the real problem?

Well I just thought that these would be included so that the windows install would be correct in Device Manager without having to run the current Hyperion right after a windows reinstall. I'll just have to remember to do that from now on. Thx for response.

Hi
ViamRAID was updated not too long ago and is current.

MiniIDE and ViPrt are bus extenders.
The VminiIDE driver you posted about drops support for older chips.
(so, while I did find it in mass storage, I did not update it)
The ViPrt for SATA was not part of Chipsets nor Mass storage, and can be added, I guess.

I doubt that MiniIDE and ViPrt are essential for TXTmode to see the drives.
We can include ViPrt, I guess..

So I'm assumming that this and future Via driver updates will not be implemented?

@ helmi or Muiz
the viamach.inf and agp inf were not updated so I guess this might need to be moved to the mass storage section.

Done.
